PROCLAMATION.

Kalakaua, King Of the Hawaiian Islands:
To all subjects and residents Of the Hawa-
ian Kingdom greeting;
Know ye that did, on the 9th day of July
A. d. 1887, abrogate the Constitution granted
by his late Majesty Kamehameha V. on the
goth day Of August 1864, being moved there
to by the advice OF my Cabinet Council; and
in pursuance Of such advice did sign, ordain,
and publish new Constitution for consider
ations appearing therein, which Constitution
having this day been duly promulgated is now
and from henceforth shall be in full force and
effect as the fundamental law Of this land.
Ofthis let all persons take due notice and
govern themselves accordingly.
Given at the Royal Palace q Iolani al
Honolulu on the 9TH day Of July A. d. 1887
KALAKAUA REX.

L, A. THURSTON,
Minister Of the Interior.

ably be needed legislation to regulate
the relations between the Ministry and
the Legislature In the British system
any measure or resolution involving
the expenditure Of money must ema-
nate from the Ministry. The Ministry
may be condemned by an adverse vote
either for the fact or the manner Of
certain expenditures, or for refusal to
make provision for particular objects.
Such law in the Hawaiian system
would have prevented many scene of
rioting and log-rolling in the passage Of
appropriation bills, and avoided leav-
ing to Ministries the elastic discretion
Of apportionin9 the expenditures to be
made out Of appropriations far in
excess Of the greatest possible revenue
Without such protection the Ministry
are liable to be suddenly
confronted in the Legislature
with financial propositions that they
have had no opportunity to properly
consider; which, if accepted by them,
might compel the modification Of care
fully celebrated plans, and, if rejected,
render them liable to the disahection
Of well-meaning legislators who regard
the objects they bring forward as Of
great importance to their constituents.
Without advocating the hasty borrow
ing Of methods from any other system,
we have only in conclusion to repeat
that the people will expect from the
present Ministry, on the assembling Of
the Legislature, at least a general pre-
seniation Ct their administrative pro
ects, and there is little doubt that the
people will not be disappointed.

THE DOUBLE scULL RACE.
The cornelia n. Causes a Collision
and the Race to be Rowed oyer
Today.

Yesterday was the day set for the double
scull race between the Dirigo and Cumber-
land Boat Clubs, and great crowd turned
out to witness it. The closeness of the race
between Frates and Davis gave promise that
the double would be very exciting.
Teemer and Gaudaur went out about 4
O'Clock, and the fine appearance of both men
caused much comment the crowd seeming to
be about equally divided in their opinion as
to which would win the championship of
America, which they will row for at Maran-
ocook the 9th of this month.
Referee Kennedy told the men to get ready
about 4So o'clock, and they responded
promptly. Frates and Cleary for the Cum
berlands appeared first, with the Dirigo
double, Davis and mate, Immediately behind
them. The appearance of the Dirigo boat
created laugh. their windsail having been
decorated by Fred Plaisted. The irrepress-
ible Fred had painted the word Dirigo in
large Saccarappa script that was remarkable
for the irregularity Of its circles.
The men having been quickly got into line,
the werd Ego" was given at 4.4S and both
crews started off at great pace, the Cum
berlands slightly in the lead. They were
quickly passed by the Dirigos, who had a
lead Of almost length at Smiths Wharf.
The Cumberlands rowed wild here, getting
into their opponents water The Dirigos
gave way to them, thereby avoiding foul
When off the Union boat house the Cumber-
lands spurted and gained half length, only

who contented themselves with rowing a
steady stroke of 81 to the minute.
The pride of Poorduck," the Cornela H,
here got in the work for which she is so
justly famous. Although requested to stop
by Teemer, who was in his boat, the steamer
paid no attention and ran across right in
front of the contestants, the Dirigos being
so near that it looked as though their boat
would be smashed by the steamers wheel.
The back-wash forced both crews to stop
rowing. When the foul occurred, which
caused such an unsatisfactory termination of
the race. the Cumberands went into the
Dirigos' water and both crews came together.
Referee Kennedy caused the whistle to be
blown, but as he had not told the men they
would be called back, both crews, not know
ing what it meant, kept on until President
Morgan of the Cumberlands waved his hat
and called to his crew to quit. which they
did. The Dirigos kept on and rowed over
the course. The steamer returned to the
boat house, and as the Dirigos rowed by, one
of that club asked the referee why he didn't
cali them in. His reply was, LET 'em row;
it will make 'em tired"
The referee decided that the race must be
rowed over today. Both boats are badly
broken, and will need considerable repairing.

A Horse Wild With Fright.

AS the 9.06 a. m. train from Portland, west
bound, approached the station at Spring
vale, Saturday, a horse, attached to wagon
loaded with cordwood, driven by Cyrus
Thing, of Ross Corner, took fright, and
clearing itself from the wagon and harness
rushed toward the locomotive, which was
being brought to standstill at the station
Reaching the depot platform the thoroughly
frightened animal mounted the planking.
spreading fear and CONSERVATION among the
crowd of waiting passengers. Several men
and one woman were thrown down, and a
man, who afterwards boarded the train, was
badly injured. AS the horse neared the en-
CINE he came in contact with the handle of a
baggage truck, cutting deep cash in his
breast. Frank Staples, driver of the Shap-
leigh mail coach, who had hold OF the truck
at the other end, was thrown violently be-
meath the engine tender, but was dragged
out of danger just as the wheels ceased to
reyolve, ayerting a most serious accident.
After his contact with the baggage truck the
horse jumped from the platform and, going
around it, dashed madly drown the railroad
track at the engine, and when caught by
William Bennett, the Sanford expressman
and mail carrier, was in the act of plunging
his head against the locomotive. The horse
will probably have to be killed.
